Prayer For Cleansing - Sonnet lyrics

rate me

where can i turn for comfort?

where do the cold days end?

where has the sunshine gone?

where do our two hearts blend?

where has love gone and hidden?

where must i go to find?

the more i shun romance,

the more love is defined

indulge me

pick a dozen black roses

lay them at my feet

buried in golgotha

amongst the dead's elite

blink one more time and eden will be gone

buried in red hair of fire

drunk on eyes azure blue

serenade the gothic queen,

for her burial is at noon

put aside amorous thoughts, ancient

chivalry is doomed

smile one more time and my angel will be gone

screams - 400 years gone by

tears - i kiss her where she lies

soaking in a bath of blood,

inviting is such naked flesh

what do temptations convey?

flowers grow in disarray

the world engulfed in darkness,

one glance brings years of gloom

i only cry when she smiles,

i have cried much too soon

my lady doth await me,

her eyes reflect the sun

her wicked sins provoke me,

my love has come undone

enthrall me

your scowl makes me smile

eden's leaves cover me

if only for a little while

a rose petal for each tear

a drop of dew for each year

consolation for your death will be an

eternity left alone

do not perish tonight, do not kill what

has not grown
